The
GL-3085H-M HID HID Golight Stryker is designed for use in all weather conditions
and produces 3,000 lumens of intense light output. These units feature remote
control operation that allows users to rotated the light 370 degrees with a hard
stop and to adjust vertical tilt through 135 degrees. Remote operation is
provided by two wireless controllers, including one handheld portable remote and
one dash mount remote that operate over a radio frequency of 433 MHz. Each
remote includes an internal 12 volt battery rated at 1 year of operation and a
single red LED to indicate remote control activity. These remotes have a range
of up to 100 feet and will operate through walls, within structures, and in
vehicles. Each remote is constructed of polycarbonate with rubber push pad
buttons for weatherproof durability and can be user programmed to operate one or
several lights simultaneously. Handheld remotes are 3 inches long by 2 inches
wide by 3/8 inch thick, and dash mount controls are 4 inches long by 2.5 inches
wide by 1/2 inch thick.

Remote Operation:
Remote control functions include on/off, and 4 buttons which control up, down,
left and right movement. The light will continue movement as long as the buttons
are depressed. Releasing the buttons stops movement and holds the Golight in
position. A fast and slow mode button (turtle/hare) controls the speed of the
motor while the pan and tilt function buttons are depressed. Holding the button
for 12 seconds in fast mode results in a full 370 degree rotation, and 8 seconds
for full tilt. Slow mode is used for pinpoint accuracy at distance and is
approximately 35 seconds for full rotation and 20 seconds for one full range of
tilt.

Durability: The
GL-3085H-M Golight Stryker is designed for hunting and demanding outdoor use
with a weather resistant housing constructed of high quality ASA Luran
thermoplastic that is heat resistant, impact resistant, UV resistant and able to
withstand rugged use and abusive conditions. This particular Golight Stryker has
a durable camouflage finish that helps it to blend in well with natural
surroundings, making it ideal for hunting and military applications. Also
available are white, chrome and black finishes. Remote movement of this
spotlight is provided by an automotive grade internal motor, gear, and
transmission assembly that is constructed of LEXAN, brass, and stainless steel
to provide rust and corrosion resistance as well as long life and reliable
operation.

Magnetic Mounting:
This light mounts using our magnetic mounting system consisting of a magnetic
base encapsulated in soft rubber which prevents scratching of vehicle finishes
and allows it to adapt to uneven vehicle surfaces for a secure grip. The
magnetic base is water tight, sealed against intrusion from dust and dirt, and
has 200 pounds of gripping force. This base has been tested to 60 mph to ensure
effective stability at highway speeds and includes a rubber cord grip for secure
power connections.

Power: This
Golight is connected to power through a detachable 16 foot, 16 AWG zip cord
terminated with a cigarette plug. This cord can be attached and detached from
from the light via a 2 pin molded, weatherproof connector that connects the cord
to the Golight’s integral 1 foot pigtail wire. This cord and magnetic mounting
system allows easy setup of the light on vehicles and equipment. Operators can
simply detach the light from the vehicle, unplug the cord, and switch the light
to another vehicle in a matter of minutes, or simply stow the light for extended
storage or to prevent theft. This light operates with 12 volts DC and draws 3
amps after an initial 7.2 amps - 60 second startup amp draw, making it ideal for
vehicles, boats, ATVs, and similar sources of 12 volt direct current.

Light Output: The
lamp in this Golight Stryker is a 35 watt high intensity discharge bulb which
produces 3,000 lumens, or a 15 million retail candle power rating. This bulb is
paired with a tight focus reflector and thick glass lens to produce a narrow
spot beam 5,331 feet in length. This lamp has a 4100K color temperature, giving
it very good color rendering and contrasting properties and the ability to
clearly and sharply illuminate objects at long distances. This beam is effective
to the far end of its reach, producing enough illumination to read a book by at
5300 feet.

This high power HID GOlight Stryker is ideal for
hunting, security, boating, law enforcement, emergency services, utilities, and
anywhere high power and remote control functionality are desired. This unit
produces a more powerful and far reaching beam than halogen spotlights and uses
less power on a 12 volt system, making it well suited to vehicles and boats
where power supply is limited. This Golight Stryker is also ideal for home and
commercial security applications and can be adapted to standard 110-120 VAC wall
outlet power using our AC/DC power converter.

This electronic ballast technology has allowed the Metal Halide to be introduced into areas such as portable lighting with great success. Before the advent of compact Metal Halide lamps, portable and mobile lighting applications relied on older technology like the filament based incandescent lamp which was inefficient and low in overall light output. With compact HID systems, however, the high power and efficiency of the Metal Halide is now available for use as boat lighting, automobile headligh [...]

Although night vision devices are becoming more popular for some species such as feral hogs, its legality is an iffy subject in many areas, not to mention the expensive nature of equipment of high enough quality for hunting purposes. The most common method of identifying targets remains spotlighting and for good reason; its affordable, its portable, and its effective. [...]
